"Now, here is what I was telling you, Grant," she said suddenly, after another long minute of studying silently the index.
And Maria knew that her adored young mistress was in sore trouble, and that she could do nothing to help only love her. "There, drink your cup o' tea, miss, and you'll feel better," she said hearteningly. "A body feels different with a cup o' tea inside. I suppose you've heard the news since Mr. Forrester himself was here only yesterday?"
What did she and Bert care about neighbourhoods and the casual dictates of fashion? They were a world in themselves, and they needed no other company. "Everyone said that we'd never get this far," Bert reminded her hearteningly. She was immediately reassured, and fell to enthusiastic planning for Christmas. It was their first Christmas, and they spent it alone together.
"Oh, I don't know; three or four days ago why, Thursday, it must have been, for after I got through with Briggs I went on to that " "And this is Monday," said Lydia; "four days."

Casey told me that a turtle starting nose to nose with William would have had to pull in his feet and wait for him every half mile or so. William must have been very thirsty, too. The light burned steadily, hearteningly. Whenever they crawled to high ground where a view was possible, Casey saw it there, just under a certain star which he had used for a marker at first.
Anyway, you can forget what I've said, if you'll feel more comfortable. It's up to Pete and me, and we'll put it over smooth, or we won't do it at all.

He turned his grease-painted face toward her hearteningly and smiled as endearingly as the sinister, painted lines would allow.
"Seems to be such a smell of PAINT," said the younger Miss Peet. "Well, that's just trying out the radiators," Martie said hearteningly. "It won't last. Did you get caught?" "Sister did; I got home just before it started. It seems to me we're having rain early this year " "We had had two inches at this time last year," said old Colonel Fox.
The splendour of the morning had soothed his nerves, and the faint wind that blew inshore from the sea spoke to him hearteningly of adventure and romance.

Peters was in the pink, without a care in the world, until he had looked out of the window and seen Billie.

"I'll pull my hair down, and yell and shoot and wring my hands Pink, you keep still! I'm positive I can shoot and wring my hands at the same time in a Bently Brown story, can't I, Luck?"
Far ahead loomed a cluster of square, black objects which must be the ranch buildings of the Quirt, and Lorraine's spirits lightened a little.
